We were told to wear masks – but there weren’t any to be had. So I – and many others – started sewing. I still have a few of them. It’s pure superstition: if I throw them out, I will need them again. Cee’s Fun … Continue reading Five Years Ago
During the time-which-shall-not-be-named there was a mask mandate which fragmented the people of the earth into those who could afford a mask, those who couldn’t, those who thought it was a horrible idea, those who thought it was an okay idea and better than nothing, … Continue reading The Masked Educator
I have friends who are accomplished selfie takers but I’ve never been happy with my own results.
This is one of the few selfies I ever took. I was quite glad to find left-over cloth masks from the beginning of the pandemic to protect me from grass pollen in our garden to protect my mouth and nose. For good measure I grabbed our grandson’s swimming goggles. At least, I can’t blame my lack of selfie skills for my looks!

Covid masks are on the wane hereabouts. They are not compulsory anymore when shopping but one MAY wear them. I do and I can see that fewer and fewer people wear them.
I on the other hand have taken to wearing a mask when I’m outside, working in the garden, cycling, walking … and I’m getting these weird looks. “It’s not the virus,” I like to shout, “it’s the pollen!” I’ve considered writing “ALLERGY” with a sharpie on my forehead (or possibly on the masks).
My allergy to grass pollen is a lot worse than in previous years. I take tablets, blow spray up my nose, and trickle drops in my eyes. I still sneeze, and sniffle, and tear up. But masks definitely make a difference. So I will keep them on. And probably glide seamlessly into autumn when the next COVID wave is going to hit.
